tol - ḗ - mā´is ( Πτολεμαΐ́ς , Ptolemaı̄́s ): Same as "Acco" in Judges 1:31 . Ptolemais was the most prominent town on the Phoenician seacoast in Maccabean times (1 Macc 5:15, 55; 10:1, 58, 60; 12:48), and is once mentioned in the New Testament in Acts 21:7 as a seaport at which Paul landed for one day, visiting the "brethren" in the place. See ACCO; PHOENICIA .
